The Brooklyn Nets have clinched a place in the playoffs after beating the Houston Rockets 105-96.
Joe Johnson led the team with 32 points as the Nets wrapped up their 40th win of the season, sealing a first playoff appearance for 11 years for the Nets.
Johnson and Shaun Livingston helped the home side, who are unbeaten in 14 games at the Barclays Center, open up an early lead before pulling out of sight late on.
James Harden tried to keep the Rockets in contention, but they could not match Brooklyn late on, ensuring back-to-back defeats.
Both sides are in action again later today, as the Nets face local rivals the New York Knicks, while Houston travel to the Toronto Raptors.
